Russia’s Federal Antimonopoly Service took legal action against the Russian Federation Social Security Fund as the latter is suspected of violating the existing antimonopoly legislation, the spokesperson for the Service reports.

The fund’s charges are based on Article 17 (part 2) of the Competition Protection law (denying access to taking part in a tender).

‘It is believed that the fund insists that all the bidders, who are supposed to deliver computer appliances to the company, make sure all the computers run on Intel microprocessors,’ the spokesperson explains.
